    Solution

    First, find the prime factorization of 5040: 5040 ├╖ 2 = 2520 2520 ├╖ 2 = 1260 1260 ├╖ 2 = 630 630 ├╖ 2 = 315 315 ├╖ 3 = 105 105 ├╖ 3 = 35 35 ├╖ 5 = 7 So, the prime factorization of 5040 is: 5040 = 2тБ┤ ├Ч 3┬▓ ├Ч 5 ├Ч 7. The formula for the number of divisors is: (Number of divisors) = (Exponent of 2 + 1)(Exponent of 3 + 1)(Exponent of 5 + 1)(Exponent of 7 + 1). Therefore, the number of divisors = (4 + 1)(2 + 1)(1 + 1)(1 + 1) = 5 ├Ч 3 ├Ч 2 ├Ч 2 = 60. Correct option: e
